The Prasna Upanishad is one of the eleven principal Upanishads, revered for its insightful philosophical discussions.

It presents a dialogue between six students and their teacher, Pippalada, where fundamental questions about life, death, and the nature of consciousness are addressed. The Prasna Upanishad provides profound insights into the core tenets of Vedanta philosophy, emphasizing the interconnectedness of all beings and the pursuit of liberation from the cycle of birth and death.
